Love the Land? So Do We.
Let’s Make An Impact Together.
We Are RANGELANDS.
Leaders. Stewards. Producers. Educators.
Connect, Lead, and Learn.
Uniting Everyone Who Lives, Works, and Cares for Rangelands.
From research plots to working ranches, SRM’s members are at the forefront of rangeland stewardship. As land managers, scientists, educators, students, producers, and conservationists, we combine expertise, ethics, and a strong land ethic — proving that lasting progress comes from an active, informed, and connected community.
What We Do
SRM advances sustainable rangeland management through:
- Policy & Advocacy — Engage policymakers and agencies on critical rangeland issues.
- Research & Science Integration — Connect members to cutting-edge science and evidence-based solutions.
- Professional Certification & Training — provide nationally recognized certifications and a broad mix of technical trainings and workshops.
- Education & Outreach — cultivate the next generation with student programs, scholarships, mentorship, and career-stage connections.
- Technical Resources & Tools — deliver guidelines, glossaries, monitoring protocols, and best practices for every range manager.
Why It Matters
- Rangelands cover vast landscapes globally and underpin critical ecosystem services (water filtration, carbon sequestration, biodiversity, forage production).
- Healthy rangelands support livelihoods, ranching, wildlife, and rural economies.
-
Degradation threatens long-term productivity, ecosystem health, and community well-being.
-
They serve as working lands that drive innovation, research, and practical solutions in natural resource management.
- An informed, engaged community is essential to sustaining these lands for current and future generations.
How We Do It
- Engage in advocacy at federal, state, and local levels
- Publish science-based policy positions and toolkits for members
- Build partnerships with agencies, NGOs, and landowner networks
- Foster collaboration across disciplines (ecology, agronomy, economics)
- Support evidence-based decision making and adaptive management
The diversity of voices in SRM, scientists, consultants, land stewards, agency professionals, is unique and it keeps me current, engaged and always motivated to learn more.
